How to Start a Sailing Channel on YouTube ! Sailor James of SV Triteia Breaks Down the Process.
Hello Friends,
This video is meant to be a guide to help anyone who is considering starting a sailing or boating channel to document their adventures or refit process. Much of what I discuss could apply to any other type of YouTube Vlog as well.
The video is rather long but I felt if someone is interested in this subject the information about how I started, my process, and the suggestions I make based on years of doing this might come in handy.
Here is a list of the gear we currently use for our channel:
– iPhone 6
– GoPro hero 7
– Scorpion Jr. Camera Rig
– RODE Video Micro Microphone (with wind sock)
– Two handed diving camera rig with super suit (for GoPro)
– DJI Mavic Pro – Alpine White
– Canon 60D (for some time-lapse and still photos)
– Sony PCM-D50 audio recorder (for Podcasts)
– Adjustable Arm with Clamp (for GoPro)
– 3 slot GoPro battery charger
– Old MacBook Pro (circa 2012)
– Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5 (old)
– Adobe After Effects CS5.5 (old)
– Adobe Audition CS5.5 (for podcasts)
– Portable solid state G-Drives
& Any decent Dark Roast Coffee
If you have any further questions feel free to shoot me a message in the comments and I will do my best to answer them for you.
I hope some of you dreaming of starting a channel see this video and realize it is within your reach and give it a shot!
Until Next Time,
Sailor James
